First Dead Space 3 footage demos co-op

As promised, Electronic Arts has revealed the first footage of Dead Space 3.

The video showcases returning protagonist Isaac Clarke on the game's setting of an icy planet entitled Tau Volantis. Also shown in the footage is the newly-introduced drop in-drop out co-op component; it was already confirmed on several occasions before with leaked screenshots and magazine details, but EA showed the game's co-op mode in action.

Dead Space 3 is due for a launch on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC sometime during February, 2013.
